Tammy Rivera Explains How She Cheated on Waka Flocka

Tammy Rivera sat down for a radio interview and touched on her husband Waka Flocka Flame being unfaithful. It’s something they’ve both talked about in the past and also dealt with on “Love & Hip-Hop: Atlanta.”

But while many presumably know about some of Waka’s infidelities, they probably weren’t aware that Tammy cheated as well. The 32-year-old said she didn’t sleep with anyone but was emotionally unfaithful.

“Hell yeah, [he’s cheated on me in the past], and I’ve cheated on him in the past,” Tammy revealed. “People only see once side to a story. Not while we were married. I haven’t had sex with anyone. Y’all think cheating is about sex?”

Elsewhere in the interview, Tammy talked about how difficult it is for Waka and other celebrities to dodge cheating rumors, and how they often get accused of wrongdoing when they’re innocent.

She also talked about forgiving her husband for being unfaithful and not letting his infidelities affect her self-esteem.

In fact, the New York native said she realized that Waka’s cheating had nothing to do with her and everything to do with him. And once that was learned, she never never forgot it.

“I don’t think it has anything do with me,” Rivera said about Waka’s cheating. “The insecurity is not the woman, the insecurity is in the man, and my husband told me that himself. He said there is nothing ever wrong with you.”

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
